Agreed there is no connection to Kelso. I picked up a birth of a James Robson who was registered in Kelso by mistake dated 1846, thinking he was the James I was researching. My error, now corrected.
Still to locate a birth/baptism for him, as you have pointed out.
Rest of your info very helpful and attending Library edition of Ancestry.

Could you please modify your original post as it contains inaccurate information?

 If it is William Robson, husband of Jane Tinline you are researching he was born at Yetholm in 1808 and died Nov 244th 1867 at Hallrule, Parish of Hobkirk, his siblings were James, Janet, Thomas, Adam, Andrew and Mary. I do have other info if you are having problems.

Regards
Amanda Robson.

There are WW1 Service Papers for a William Robson b 1884 in Hawick which fits with the William in the family.

On these, he lists a marriage to a Jane Scott in Hawick on 19 Jun 1910. Four sons born so far after the marriage by 1915 and his enlistment.

Home address in 1915 showing as 16 Lothian Street, Hawick.

It looks more likely that James was born in England.

ROBSON, JAMES       TURNBULL 
GRO Reference: 1844  M Quarter in TYNEMOUTH UNION  Volume 25  Page 419

No birth record for Margaret or marriage record on SP

JAMES ROBSON      DIED AGE 69   MMN TURNBULL   1915   HAWICK

MARGARET ROBSON      DIED AGE 69   MMN MAXWELL   1923   HAWICK

There are 7 birth registrations on https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk mother HARRIS/HARRES
1878 – 1896 and 6 children on the 1911, if I have the correct family.

Colin
Hi Colin, James Robson was born in Hawick, all his census entries confirm that.

I am looking for descendants of a James Robson, who was born in Kelso around 1845 and died in Hawick 23 Nov 1915 at the Carnegie Free Library in Bridge Street in Hawick. He was a stone mason to trade, Married to Margaret Harris and they had 9 children, all of whom were alive in the 1911 census.
He was the grandson of my 3 x Great Grand father, also James Robson, and the son of William Robson and Jane Tinline.
Margaret, his wife died on 29 March 1923 at 25 Beaconsfield Terrace Hawick.
Any help in pointing my way forward would be appreciated

Just to clarify this Robson family, I am a direct descendant of James Robson and Margaret Harris, my Robson tree is on Ancestry. James Robson married Margaret Harris in Edinburgh on 23 Nov 1877, The Harris family originate in Fife, however, Margaret Harris was working as a domestic servant at Stirches, Hawick. James Robson gives his parents as James Robson, dec and Janet Robson, ms Turnbull. James and Margaret Robson had 9 known children which I believe you also know of.

James Robson married Janet Turnbull approx 1835, Janet Turnbull already had a son John Anderson born approx 1830 in Jedburgh,( died 1905 in Hawick) the 1851 shows the family living at Greenwynd, Hawick, James & Janet Robson give Wilton as their place of birth,
The known children of James Robson and Janet Turnbull are:
Janet born approx 1836.
William born 1838 married Ann Smith.
Walter born 14th Dec 1839 died infancy, buried in Wilton CY
James born 15th Dec 1841 died infancy, buried in Wilton CY
Walter born in 1844 married Isabella Crozier in 1872.
James born in 1846 married Margaret Harris 1877 and died 1915
Thomas born 1850 married Penuel Graham. 1882.

James Robson died Jan 20th 1870 age 80yrs,
Father William Robson, dec.
Mother Isabella Robson, ms Turnbull,dec.
Informant William Robson, son.

Janet Robson, died 9th Dec 1882 age 81yrs, widow of James Robson.
Father Walter Turnbull.
Mother Janet Turnbull ms Hogg.
Notified by William Robson, son.

James & Janet Robson are buried in Wellogate cemetery, Hawick.
 
In 1861 the family is recorded with the surname Robertson at Greenwynd, Hawick,

There is currently no known connection to Kelso, if you are able to provide any documents with this information I would be very interested in looking at them otherwise my research will rely on the documents which I have, also if you have an Ancestry DNA test from any family members that could potentially be a match with me that would be another option,
Regards
Amanda Robson.
